Welcome to A Writer’s Mind’s, END OF THE WEEK
CHARACTER BLOWOUT! On Monday I invited Robin Danner over to share a little bit about the cover for her latest release, THE PRINCES KNIGHTED. Now it’s my pleasure to
welcome over and interview the characters from this story. Today I’ll be
interviewing the heroine, Sara of Bevelaire. Tomorrow, the hero, Hugh d’Arcy.
Before we get started, let’s learn more about
The Princes Knighted.
Sir Hugh
d’Arcy has returned from the battlefield to escort Sara, the princess of
Noventia’s sister, to wed another. The mission is his duty, and his personal
agony. Sara has never forgotten her love for the boy Hugh once was. When
captured, a shocking revelation brings their love to life again. To save all he
has sworn to protect, Hugh faces a devastating decision. Can Sara convince him
her love is strong enough to overcome any obstacle?
Interview time!
SKY:
Tell us a little bit about you.
SARA:
Hello, I’m
Sara! My older sister, Rowena, is the princess of Noventia. We’ve lived in
N’ior, the capital city of Noventia, for about three years now and I’ve never
seen a lovelier place. (Our life in Bevelaire was fairly gloomy before we came
here.) I recently agreed to marry the Duke of Aronia, but Hugh d’Arcy, the boy
I’ve loved since I was sixteen, has just returned to N’ior.
SKY: Remembering the moment you first laid eyes
on Hugh, what thoughts come to mind?
SARA: My sister had just helped me escape
the rebels, but she was captured. I ran for help and that’s when I encountered
Prince Talin and his favorite recruit, Hugh. Hugh was such a hero, allowing me
to ride his horse with him since I’m deathly afraid of them!
SKY: He has one trait you adored from the start.
What is it? You know without doubt he appreciates one of your traits. Share
what you think that is.
SARA: It would definitely be his sweetness.
Hugh has always treated me with the kindest regard, even though he was
seventeen when we first met. He wasn’t like most lads his age. He was patient
and kind and willing to befriend me when I knew no one at N’ior other than my
sister. And, he probably wouldn’t admit it, but Hugh has always felt
responsible for me. He earned my hero worship at a young age and patiently
stepped into the role of my protector.
SKY: He has one trait you’d change if you could.
What is it? Oh yeah, there’s a trait you know he’d change about you…fess up!
SARA: That’s a simple one, his
stubbornness! Hugh thinks he knows what’s best for me even though I tell him
time and again that I know my own mind. This hearkens back to his protector
role. He would probably say the same about me.
SKY: Ah, love is in the air. What is the single
most romantic thing he’s done for you?
SARA: Oh, it would be so hard to name
just one! It’s a mixture of many things…the way he looks at me, the way he
holds me, the way he tries his best to protect me. Once he was even gravely
injured, but he was determined to fight our captors to save me.
SKY: He has a feature that draws your eye every
time. Care to share? His eye constantly roams to a particular part of your
person. Tell, tell!
SARA: I’m always been fond of his hair.
Hugh has golden brown curls that have a tendency to fall over his brow. My
fingers constantly itch to touch them! As for my feature, it may sound trite,
but Hugh seems to adore my eyes. They are hazel and he claims that they
alternating green and brown hues entrance him. (Blushes)
SKY: How do you think Hugh would answer the
following… Our favorite thing to do
together is…?
SARA: Sit in the rose garden at N’ior
SKY: You and Hugh just don’t see eye to eye on
what issue?
SARA: Hugh thinks he has to be constantly
on his guard around me. I just want him to know that I’m not a child anymore
and my need for him is that of a woman.
SKY: He said one thing to you that you’ll never
forget. What was it?
SARA: Hugh revealed the identity of the
rebel leader to me, but shush…I can’t say. It’s a secret!
SKY: Thanks so much for joining me today!
Readers, be sure to swing in tomorrow as I welcome over the hero of The Princes Knighted, Hugh d’Arcy.
